HOW MUCH I'VE LIED
Gram Parsons, 1973

(this is a whole step lower on the record, but I like this key for
playablity and singability.)

|Em   |C  D (xx0232@1)|G    |   |

G (320003@1)                D (xx0232@1)              G (320003@1)                 CDarling, (x32010@1)there is something I must tell you, you must know.
Em (022000@1)                 A (x02220@1)             DBut (xx0232@1)it's so hard to say the words I feel.
      C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)                       CThis (x32010@1)fancy that I'm on has been going on too long.
      Em (022000@1)               C (x32010@1)                DIt's (xx0232@1)time we stopped pretending things are real.

        G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)              C'Cause (x32010@1)I've been living deep in sin.  I've been living blind.
Em (022000@1)              A (x02220@1)                   DAnd (xx0232@1)I don't know just what's right or wrong.
    C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)                          CTo (x32010@1)take a chance on losing you was such a silly thing to do.
      Em (022000@1)               C (x32010@1)             DThe (xx0232@1)chance I might wake up and find you gone.

       C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)     G (320003@1)              C (x32010@1)Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue.
	Em (022000@1)           Am (x02210@1)            C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1)Any brighter flame would be alie. (x02210@1)	  C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)     G (320003@1)                  C (x32010@1)Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you,
	Em (022000@1)                  C (x32010@1)           D (xx0232@1)But I know that I'll only make you cry.

G (320003@1)                D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1)               CA (x32010@1)thief can only steal from you.  He cannot break your heart.
Em (022000@1)                    A (x02220@1)              DHe'll (xx0232@1)never touch the precious things inside.
    C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)                        CSo (x32010@1)one like you should surely be miles and miles away from me,
Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)       GThen (320003@1)you'd never care how much I've lied.
    C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)                                  CSo (x32010@1)try to understand the pain.  It takes so long when I explain.
Em (022000@1)                  C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)       GPlease, (320003@1)don't you forget how much I've lied.
